Waiting Out Storms


So much pain 

So much hurt 

Dark heavy clouds cascade

My light strikes

Dim rays 

Lanterns set low 

We let go 

To the sky I fly 

Higher and higher 

Searching 

Brighter and brighter 

You light my shine 

Further away 

Tight chest in solitude 

Cry cry cry 

Till the clouds run dry 

Weathering me down 

Through deep blues 

Sweet rays peak through 

The sun my home 

Storm has passed

I’m home at last.
